Hello,
Does anyone have further clarification on when it is appropriate to bill an E/M with a debridement performed on the same wound and in office, pos 11. Guidelines state they can be billed if a reasonable and necessary office visit is provided and is separately identifiable from the procedure. Does anyone have clarification to what this means and examples of this? This is specifically in a wound care clinic. Any clarification would help.

Thank you.
